I don't get to post in this thread as often as I would like these days, but I had a most excellent commute this morning. I don't know why I didn't look sooner, but I found a slight change in route took away 99% of the most dangerous road on my commute, and only adds a mile. I guess bc it is only a half mile on that particular road I never bothered, but it's a horrible road. Now I'm on it for maybe 100 feet, can stay in the suicide lane, or even cut through grass if traffic is too heavy.

I had 2 spots on the ride that I have hated the past 8 months, one of them being this particular road, the other being an area I used to be able to cut through on the way home that was closed off for construction...well, construction done and I have that cut through as well!

Bonus on this new route is it takes me close to Chinese take out, the lame grocery store (but it's the closest if I need to grab one of two things), and in the future, if kids ever happen, the elementary school.
